Today, CNNI broke into a show in order to broadcast that a woman who was a Google VP has been named President of Yahoo! It seems obvious that they did this only because she was the subject of that show focusing on Woman in Business. Was it BrN or would a banner & a wait until the next news break have been more appropriate?

Interestingly enough, they were still touting it as BN this morning on CNN's Start. ing Point. Still using the BN yellow chyron and everything. How long after BN do you still call it BN? Just wonderin'

At first I heard Morsi, but then I realized it was Messi! A day earlier at just about the same time there was a bit of breaking news involving Morsi, but World Sport was coming up so we had to wait until the top of the hour for a more detailed update.

And I have to mention Kate Middleton's pregnancy here as well. I can't help but to think things would have possibly turned out differently if all the allegedly serious media outlets, including CNN, didn't suddenly turn into tabloids while reporting about this story. Of course Kate is popular and many people are interested in just about everything about her, but when you see senior international correspondents deployed to cover not only her pregnancy, but some prank call as well, it's easy to imagine the pressure that nurse was facing, as opposed to a situation where the prank call wouldn't be a top story on some of CNN's (and other news network's) programs. It's for the authorities to conclude what exactly led to the suicide and it's not for me to accuse anyone of doing anything, but nevertheless I think this case sounds an ethics alarm.

Brekaing News at the top of PML - Court is still in session. NOT BREAKING NEWS. There are new catastrophies that we should be concerned about nor do you have few facts about. Happening Now would have been more appropriate.
